Tangara's firmware has settings to enable different control schemes for the touch wheel and side buttons. These control schemes allow you to choose how these inputs behave.
To set these control schemes, navigate to "Input Method" from the Settings menu and select the desired control schemes from the dropdown menus. Control schemes that will leave the device unusable will not be set, at least one input method must be used for navigation (ie, you cannot disable the touchwheel unless the side buttons are set to navigation).
In addition to setting the behaviour of the side buttons, you can also specify a behaviour for the side buttons when the device is locked.
